Lance has guided people through every tangle from physical knots to existential dread, collecting stories that are equal parts victory and ā€œdid that really happen?ā€

Hereā€™s the lowdown: our four showsā€”Clearing the Clouds, Mindful Mover, Resilience Rituals, and 6-Minute Resetā€”team up like a wellness dream squad (no juice cleanse required!). Each show offers a different slice of self-improvement, all served with Lanceā€™s signature blend of humor, heart, and the occasional ā€œDid he just say that?ā€ vibe.

By listening and tuning into what habits work and what donā€™t, youā€™ll build a foundation for resilience with monthly challenges and community-shared practices.
